A woman was taken to hospital after being assaulted and robbed of belongings including an NHS identification card in Cleethorpes.

Police say the 31-year-old victim was attacked by another woman - who claimed she was pregnant - and also had a pink iPhone and bank cards stolen from her.

Officers from Humberside Police have released CCTV images of two people they are looking to trace as part of the investigation into the incident.

It happened between 4am and 5am on Tuesday, August 6, outside a takeaway on High Street.

Police said the victim had to go to hospital with back pain and scratches to her neck, back and arm.

During the incident, a man is said to have approached the two women and indecently exposed himself. It is not known if he was known to the female suspect.
